Conservative Americans Part Of Obama’s Hit List Since 2009

Conservative Americans Part
Of Obama’s Hit List Since 2009

The Fuehrer Obama
said he just found out when we did, well… if that’s the case he has known about
it since 2009 when I first learned about this.
Why are we just getting around to this now, like it just happened?

Remember
“Joe the Plummer”, he called then 2008 presidential candidate Barack Obama, a socialist,
for that he got audited nearly to death in 2009 it ruined him. If it weren’t for the speaking engagements by
the Tea Party, who was also targeted
by Obama’s Gestapo, poor Joe would have been living on the street.

And
then there was the Koch Brothers Foundation, the IRS nearly turned it in side out.
And now finally in 2013 furious over
revelations that the Internal Revenue Service targeted conservative groups for
the last four years, just now several Republicans are now demanding jail time
for anyone involved in the scandal. Well…it’s
about #@&*+^* time! And does that
include the CRIME BOSS Obama?

“My question
isn’t about who is going to resign,” House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, told reporters. “My question is who’s going to jail over
this scandal?”

Rep.
Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, a member of the House Oversight and Government Reform
Committee, told the Salt Lake Tribune, “Whoever is responsible, whoever was
complicit in the execution of this, those who participated in the cover-up, not
only should they be fired, they should be prosecuted and thrown in jail. There is no way to defend this one. Using the IRS as a tool is just beyond
reason.”

A
little late and an IRS harassment short for this one, but twenty-nine House
Republicans are co-sponsoring a bill by Rep. Michael Turner, R-Ohio, that would
make it a crime punishable by jail for IRS agents to launch politically
motivated investigations.

Rep.
Cory Gardner, R-Colo., called for incarceration as well.

“There is a tone
of direction that the IRS has taken, which was reflected by the tone of this
administration,” Gardner
said. “This led these staffers to believe this is what was expected of them. This type of thuggish behavior is exactly
what the administration wanted.”

Ohhhhhh! I hope they nail Obama on this one, or is the
Government just too corrupt to police itself?

On
Friday, the IRS admitted it was singling out groups applying for tax-exempt
status that used the words “tea party” or “patriot” in their names, but
insisted that the reasoning had nothing to do with the politics or message of
these groups. The IRS also lied when
they claimed the incident was limited to a small cadre of low-level agents at a
single location in Cincinnati,
Ohio. The IRS issued a rare apology, insisting that
the agents made the decisions on their own initiative and that senior leaders
had no idea this was going on. Oh Yeah! For four years??? The story quickly began to unravel as news
reports indicated it was actually several offices that were involved in the
targeting of conservative groups. It has
been revealed that, contrary to initial claims, senior officials were
apparently first advised of the efforts to single out groups critical of the president as
early as 2010.

President
Obama lied as usual when he said he wasn’t made aware of this issue until
Friday he ordered it in 2009. At a
Tuesday press conference, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said
“categorically” no one in the White House had any idea the IRS was singling out
these groups. When pressed for how he
could know that, Carney admitted he could not know for sure. So he lied, can’t any one in the Whitehouse
tell the truth?

According
to Fox News, an internal timeline by the inspector general’s office revealed
the IRS began looking at tea party and “patriot” groups as early as 2010,
shortly after Obamacare was passed. Do
you notice how close they are getting to 2009.

However,
in 2011 the organizations scrutinized were expanded to include groups focused
on government debt and spending, taxes and education on “ways to make America
a better place to live” as well as those who criticized “how the country is being run.” In early 2010, the IRS list included
groups that were educating people on the Constitution and Bill of Rights, were
pro-life, Christians, and those that believed the Second Amendment was an
American citizens right and those involved in limiting/expanding government
like the Framers were.

Rep.
Cory Gardner said that among the multiple conservative groups targeted by the
IRS was at least one group from Colorado. The group, which is asking that its name be
kept private for now, applied for 501(c)(4) status and had its application
illegally released to the public during the application process, which is a
clear violation of federal law. “The
information on their application was confidential and the IRS was required by
law to treat it as such, yet that information was leaked to ProPublica,” Gardner said. “Who’s
to say the IRS didn’t give out confidential donor information as well? This confirms people’s worst beliefs about
government overbearance.” (Interestingly the IRS hands out
Tax Free NON PROFIT status to any Islamic Terrorist money laundering so-called
charitable group like candy. Oh I forgot
they are supporting their Muslim President so they get a free pass.)

The Colorado organization
lists itself as being a center-right organization providing research and
information to the public on policy issues, government behavior, voting records
and legislation. During their
application process, the group was sent a letter by the IRS asking for detailed
personal information regarding its activities.
Gardner’s
office released
a copy of the letter,which
revealed that among other things the IRS demanded to know, under penalty of
perjury: Copies of all research and
informational materials distributed to the public…

“A list of who in the organization conducts these
activities and how and where they distribute the findings.

A list of all outside organizations and “partners”
they work or contract with to conduct research activities.

A list of the meetings, conventions, promotional
tours, media interviews and similar events they have participated in and/or
conducted.

Provide copies of the material distributed at
events

Provide copies of transcripts when talking with the
media

Provide a list of all media interviews conducted by
anybody regarding the organization as well as a description of the purpose of
the interview.”

In
addition, the organization was told it would need to provide copies of all
educational training materials as well as who they target during their training
sessions and when they take place.

Gardner promises confidentiality to
any group that contacts his office with allegations of being targeted by the
IRS for political reasons, unless the group specifies otherwise. “I am making my office available to any
group that has been wrongly targeted by the IRS,” he said. ”We are here to help in any way that we can.”

Rep.
Doug Lamborn, R-Colo., has said constituents in his district are also
encouraged to contact his office if they feel they have been unfairly targeted
by the IRS. “It is important to understand
how such a practice came about and who authorized its implementation,” Lamborn
said. “Were you or your organization the victim of these inappropriate and
illegal IRS activities? I encourage you
to share your experience with my district staff. I appreciate your help in this
matter and vow to hold those accountable within the government who acted
inappropriately, or even illegally.”

While
the revelations have evoked outcries from both the political left and right,
some critics have attempted to temper the issue by saying that while the
allegations are serious, no one was hurt by the requests and no conservative
groups had their applications denied. However,
the argument fails to take into account groups that simply gave up because the
detailed requests would require an overwhelming number of man hours and
resources. The recently released
inspector general report on the issue noted that while few of the nearly 300
applications were actually denied, most of those applicants simply stopped
trying.

In a
possible attempt to downplay the importance of the issue, CNN reported that
acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller said the entire event was the fault of
two “rogue” employees who were “off the reservation.” Miller claimed the two individuals had
already been disciplined for their actions.

However,
Gardner said if
Miller thinks his statement will put an end to the controversy, he is sadly
mistaken. “This is not a matter of whether
people get fired or not. It’s a question
of how long they spend in jail. I do
believe you are looking at jail time and heads rolling as they should.” He went on to say Congress will
continue to aggressively investigate to find out why the IRS lied to lawmakers. “The IRS lied to Congress,” Gardner said. “Somebody knew this was going on, yet they
reassured us there was no targeting of conservative groups. Harry Truman had a sign on his desk that
said, ‘The buck stops here.’ We need to find out where the hell the buck stops
with this administration.”

While
it might be easy to point to fingers solely at individual IRS agents, Gardner said another
issue to look at is the part Congress may have played in putting pressure on
the IRS to investigate conservative groups.
“We need to look into whether members of Congress encouraged this type
of discrimination against people based on their philosophical thought,” he
said. “I think this investigation will be the type where no stone is left
unturned. This is a sickening episode where the government was acting far
beyond its constitutional authority.”

USA
Today backed up Gardner’s
concerns that the IRS may not be entirely to blame for the targeting of groups
opposed to the Obama administration. The
same Democrat chairman of the Senate Finance Committee (Montana Sen. Max
Baucus) who this week is calling for hearings into IRS activities, specifically
called on the IRS to engage in that very conduct back in 2010. And he wasn’t the only one. Just last year, a group of seven Senate
Democrats sent another letter to the IRS urging them to similarly investigate
these outside political organizations. “From
Max Baucus to Chuck Schumer to Jeanne Shaheen, key Senate Democrats publicly
pressured the IRS to target groups that held differing political views and who,
in their view, had the temerity to engage in the political process. The IRS listened to them and acted. And other Democrat senators like Kay Hagan
and Mark Pryor said and did nothing about it.”

Gardner said “I think this is a clear indicator that we cannot trust the government,
especially the IRS with information regarding our health care,” Gardner said. “You
have an administration that thinks it can control guns and then gives us Fast
& Furious. Then it believes it can
administer and give us all health care, but now we find out the IRS cannot even
manage nonprofit organizations.”

So did
the IRS act on its own? Obviously
not! Is it just coincidence that those
opposed to Obama were harassed by the IRS, or just as the criminals in Congress
ordered hits on various people did Obama order similar IRS hits on groups
opposed to Obama’s Communist Regime? We
need a special prosecutor…

THE BOTTOM LINE: Late
night comic David Letterman said when asked the question, why don’t you make negative
jokes about Obama? He answered: “Well…I don’t want the FBI taping my phone!”

About Me

I am a first generation American. My ancestors immigrated from Europe, legally I might add. My education is the equivalent of two years of college. No degree, so if you find that I am grammatically challenged, please forgive me. I am however, very well read in philosophy, political science and American history. I write about many subjects, mostly political. Sometimes about what chaps my hide, or just to provoke thought. I have been accused of being a right wing Christian conservative extremist, so I am coming out of the closet. I confess, yes, I am. I believe that it will take the power of God and a lot of extreme people like myself to grab hold of the steering wheel of this country and take a sharp turn to the right in order to stop this great nation from being buried in liberal socialism and tyranny.
